Today I burned your old love letters
  B7                        E 
I burned them gently one by one
E
And as I  light the flame I read it
   B7                        E    E7
So I could see what you had done
    A                           E
The first you wrote me was the  sweetest
E                              B7
The last one broke my heart in two
    E
Our love now lies among the embers
       B7                          E
In the ashes  of your letter  I am blue

SOLO

E
As I burned your old love letters
   B7                           E   
It brough back memories from the past
E
It told about you and your new love 
  B7                      E     E7
A love I knew could never last
    A                           E
The first you wrote me was the  sweetest
E                              B7
The last one broke my heart in two
E 
As I light the flame I read it
    B7                     E
For I can say I still love you
